Taddeucci and Caponi's Dream 10km Open Water: "But the Seine Was Filthy and Full of Plastic"
Italian swimmers achieved a dream outcome in the 10km open water event at the European Championships. Ginevra Taddeucci clinched the gold medal, while Giulia Caponi secured the bronze, contributing to Italy's impressive medal tally of 11 so far.

They described the water as "filthy" and "full of plastic," pointing to environmental issues that impacted their race experience.
The dual medal victory underscores the strength of Italian open water swimming, but the environmental observations from the athletes serve as a stark reminder of the challenges faced in hosting such events in polluted waterways.
